History & Biography
This power metal group operated as Claymore between 1994 and 2003 only to disband, do the usual reformation in 2012 and change its monicker to the current one in 2014. The incept date was 18.06.2014. The reformation line-up was a new one.

A 2002 demo led to a full-length through a Serbian label. The band was Vlad Invictus, Andrijana Gajic Dea and Goran Garčević. A drum machine was programmed. Vlad produced here. After a show at the Serbian Metal Fest in 2014 the band opted to avoid confusion with the other Claymores out there and picked a new name. The group opened for Ross The Boss locally in 2017. Demo 2020 led to Eulogy For The Gods. The song Lords Of The Light was dedicated to Mark Shelton of Manilla Road who had died three years earlier. The album was supported through a video for Hunter Of The Damned. Alive In Vultureburg was a 2022 independent release recorded live in 2021. Marko Novaković had joined on drums in 2020. Vladimir Novaković joined on six strings in 2021. The band’s Eulogy Of The Gods was pressed on vinyl by Golden Core in 2022. The label was also re-issuing a Manilla Road album at the same time. Uroš Kovačević left in 2022 and in came Vladimir Novaković who was already helping out. The band appeared at Metaleros Festival in 2023 and subsequently uploaded the Live At Metaleros Vol. 4 video. The band proclaimed its affinity for playing live without dubs and triggers. Live at Keep It True Rising 3 was uploaded in 2024. The band and openers Arc Of Time played at M2 in Romania in 2024.

Claymorean announced a new album, called Eternal Curse, through Stormspell Records (CD) and on vinyl through GoldenCore Records for the spring of 2025. Claymorean will promote the album on a co-headlining tour with Crystallion called Strong Winds Magic Mist, which will take place in Germany and Czech Republic, from April 4 to April 12 2025.

Dejana "Betsa" Pavlović Garčević and Vlad are a couple and married since 2014. Goran and Vlad are brothers.
